A very Happy New Year!

Hello there friends!

Well, I would firstly like to wish you all A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR and hope that 2013 brings you all much love, happiness and prosperity and that you're filled with gratitude for everything in your life.  I also hope you and your loved ones enjoyed a wonderful Christmas holiday and have shared many wonderful memories this season.

My 2012 crafting year was very sporadic due to time constraints, family and work commitments.  I cannot promise that this year will be any different but I do hope to give some priority to my creative time.  And what better day to start than on New Years Day!!!

So, I begin the new year with a new January calendar page for 2013.  We are in the throes of winter here in Ottawa and there's nothing more seasonal than snow-covered trees and ice skating together!  The colouring of these images took a while but I have so badly neglected my copics of late that I decided to sit down and just colour, colour, colour!  The fence is cut out and Tilda and Edwin are on dimensionals to add a 3D effect to the page.

Looking forward to doing a spot of blog-hopping later and catch up on my many blogging friends whom I have so badly neglected as of late.  I am back to work tomorrow but have thoroughly enjoyed a run of time off to relax and chill with my family.

Thanks for stopping in and saying hi - your visit is hugely appreciated and I would just like to say I am very thankful for the many blogging friends I have and the friendships I have found here.

Hugs,
